We just saw our first campaign ad -- Mitt Romney running for President -- but that election is IN FREAKIN' 2008!!! I know we live close to Iowa, but this is just ridiculous...
This is only the first ad you've seen? I've been seeing them a lot! Crazy, isn't it? They might as well just start as soon as one election is over with. It's like putting your Christmas tree up in August.
With a two party primary and each side so wide open, it will only get worse. I am one of the few freaks who likes political ads. I am sure you will get sick of them soon...just think the Iowa caucus is not for another 10 1/2 months! And then the Ill. primary is Feb 5th. And then it is full speed ahead until November 5th of 2008!!! Lord save us.
wife of Dennis, my sweet love - the kindest, gentlest, funniest, smartest man I've ever known and EXACTLY the man for whom I prayed (and not at all who I thought I wanted but thankfully, God is wiser than I);
mother of Annalivia '05, Daniel '07, Emmeliese '09, Peter '10, and Elora (born into the arms of Jesus '13) the hearts of my own heart, joys of my life, far more than I ever prayed for because my mind could never conceive of such wonderfully intricate and delightful little beings;
granddaughter of grandparents who taught me to love fiercely and forgive freely and that it is better to be respectful rather than proved right and grateful rather than gratified;
daughter of two amazing people who have devoted themselves to their children and family and have continued to figure out ways to love each other;
sister of three incredibly intelligent, clever, imaginative, zany younger sisters, my best friends, who are crazy enough to keep coming back, even though I do all sorts of things to drive them nuts;
friend of some hilarious people from kindergarten, grade school, high school, college, seminary and beyond;
former pastor learning the joys and challenges of being called to be home full-time-ish while volunteer-teaching at a teeny classical school;
pilgrim bumbling forward on this amazingly glorious journey towards Home.

p.s. Did you get the picture of Sawyer I sent?
Well, we have 5 channels and watch PBS pretty much non-stop, so that could account for my ignorance. Now if only I could ignore them...
And I just saw the Sawyer pics. Congrats.
Thank you. Do you like his name?
And yeah, ignoring them is best. I hate them, even when the election is the next day.
